The Ivan Calderwood Homestead on Vinalhaven, Maine

The Ivan Calderwood Homestead is an eight-person assisted living facility that is dedicated to “aging in place” in the remodeled former home of Ivan and Isabel Calderwood, located just out of town on the island of Vinalhaven, Maine. A life-long resident of Vinalhaven, Ivan generously bequeathed his home for the purpose of providing a place for those in the community who can no longer live independently. Completed in 2001, the Ivan Calderwood Homestead is a group residence and the home base of Vinalhaven Eldercare Services’ services and programs for the elderly residents of Vinalhaven. Eight rooms provide housing to elders of Vinalhaven who are no longer able to remain in their homes. Priority for admission is given to residents of Vinalhaven.

Mission

Vinalhaven Eldercare Services’ mission is to provide the opportunity for Vinalhaven elders to age in place: in their homes, in the community, on the island, to maintain elders’ connections to island traditions, community and family, to promote dignity, safety, health, comfort and a respectable quality of life and to be a sustainable organization
